Recommended Customer Reviews
I recently embarked on a small kitchen remodel and selected California Countertop to assist me. Michelle was very patient and a great help in the design/material selection phase of the project. The materials arrived on schedule and the job started right on time. John and Junior removed the old tile countertops, sink/faucet and disposal and installed the new granite top, sink/faucet and disposal all in a day. (And were very neat in the process.) To my pleasure and surprise, Barry, the plumber came at 6pm to hook up the sink/faucet/disposal, completing that phase of the project (and making the kitchen again functional) a mere 12 HRs after the project started. A day later, Steve, the tile installer, started laying out the backsplash. Two days of careful cutting and adhering were followed by a third day grouting the glass tile. Then voila, it was done! And, I couldn't be happier with the results. The work was excellent. The care exhibited to protect my house and to clean up after each day was great. And, the end product looks terrific! All in a week.
I went to California Countertop looking for a manufactured quartz countertop for a backyard kitchen area. They have a great showroom and carry all lines. My job was small, so the designer recommended that I go to their nearby fabrication facility to look for remnants. I found a gorgeous piece of natural granite that was perfect for my job. They came out and confirmed the measurement and less than two weeks later the countertop was installed. Everybody I worked with at this company - the designer, slab yard guys, measurer, and installers - was fabulous, and the job is great. I highly recommend California Countertop and would use them again.
I had my cabinets measured Jan 2, and was told manufacturing of the Quartz countertop should take around 10 days. 10 days later they were ready to install, and we scheduled the installation for Jan 19. This took most of the day to complete, including plumbing work, but it was a very smooth process.
After installation, I noticed that the countertop did not line up perfectly at the left and right side of the range. To the left, the overhang from the countertop was 1.25"", and to the right it was 1.5"". I gave California Countertop a call, and they agreed to come out and look at the issue. We had a long discussion, and we did agree that there's a slight difference between the measurements and the actual countertop width, but that this does not fully explain the difference in alignment. It was also apparent that the countertop could not be perfectly square because the cabinets themselves were slightly skewed. Nevertheless, the guy was very professional and completely focused on the end result rather than trying to find who to blame. He did offer to replace one of the countertop pieces to equalize the overhangs, which would be somewhat risky for the company, but also suggested a few ways to hide the differences. In the end I chose to not rework the countertop piece, but just do the minor cabinet adjustments he suggested.
In summary, I had a very pleasant experience working with California Countertop, and would strongly recommend them.
I have worked with Wayne and his team at California Countertop for over 20 years. I continue to work with them because their quality is excellent and they are extremely dependable and knowledgeable about everything related to solid surface, granite and quartz. I appreciate the integrity of the company and the way they do business. They do what they say they are going to do so I'm assured that my clients and I will always be happy with the finished product.
worst customer service ever ,went to showroom and was ignored when asked for help was given a look like why are you bothering me . We walked out
California Countertop installed a counter that was perfect for the space and budget. During the measurement, the installer made great suggestions to improve the overall look of the kitchen. The installation was completed timely and with perfection. I am pleased with having chosen California Countertop.

Carrie H.I didn't receive a call back as promised on Thursday, Friday, or Monday, so I am guessing that they simply won't or can't help me, but didn't have the nerve to call me back with the bad news. So they lose one star for not calling me back and one star for not standing behind their product/work. I will be looking for another company who has the skillset to extricate the sink from the cleats installed by the California Countertop contractor. I would not recommend this business to anyone.
I had my Corian kitchen countertops refinished after 25 years. There were minor scratches and a burn mark from a pot. From Sylvia who did the cost estimate, to Hugo who refinished the counters, to Robin in the accounting department--everyone at California Countertop was outstanding. Hugo did a fabulous job of removing the burn mark and a small chip on the edge of the counter. He cleaned up the whole kitchen afterwards and my countertops look brand new! Highly recommend California Countertop for refinishing Corian!
Rude. Spoke to Sylvia. I called to get a quote on installing granite counter tops and was told that I needed to submit drawings with dimensions to them. They refused to come to my home and look at the project. Sylvia was rude, unfriendly, unhelpful and talked over me during the conversation. What kind of company refuses to look at a job and demands the customer submit drawings to them??? Terrible customer service.
I had the bath tub in my master bath removed, then went to California Countertops to select solid-surface material for the new walk-in shower walls and pan (floor), and the double-sink vanity. I also had them replace the shower walls in my second bath, which still had the tub. Christine was extremely helpful and patient with me as I tried to decide on what to select. Her recommendation of a Corian pattern was exactly what I wanted. The installation was perfect. I was totally amazed with the excellence of the workmanship. The second bath had a window in the shower area and the material went inside the window frame with absolute precision. I love my new bathrooms!
